Jujutsu Kaisen Modulo Color Page

Also it's confirmed it will have the Cover & Lead Color Pages for Issue #3
This is the inverse of the ch.7 Color page. Cool idea and great execution.

Also really happy to see modulo on the cover since I am glad to see it succeed and I really like iwasakis art.
--- Double Post Merged, , Original Post Date: ---

3 straight color pages lol
It isn't 3 straight Color pages ?
It is this Color page and it is getting the cover next week.

Weekly Shonen Jump Issue #2 Cover: Sakamoto Days
Really cool cover , it doesn't really feel like suzukis current style but I like it regardless.

Congrats on its 5th anniversary! I am really happy this manga managed to reach this far as I really enjoyed my time with it. Although I hoped that sakamoto days would become a bigger hit , that doesn't affect my love of the manga.

Also , are they advertising toy guns lol

Gonron's pre rank isn't that bad, I'll say it'll have one middle ranking before instantly dropping to the bottom.

holy fuck @ someone hertz being that high. blue box appears to have escaped the bottom half and they sent kagurabachi down to rot there again....nue too....c'mon LOL

gonron being perma bottom can't come fast enough but it's looking over for harukaze mound too huh? sad, I'm not the biggest fan but I'd have liked to see it continue but this is looking a wee bit dire. jjk modulo occupying 3 consecutive colors though is fucking funny, like yeah let's keep showering it in attention

Only ONE color page next week???? Genuinely like what is jump on rn. At least I think we'll start seeing the new series rank from next week onwards, but dang, I'm also really wishing I could see kiyoshi escape that purgatory of being beneath the third color.

Only two colors, and it was announced last week anyway

Harukaze and Otr switch bottom places, odds are both are leaving together. Would love for Jump to prove me wrong a let Harukaze live but I doubt it.

See why i said what i said about Kiyoshi and the ToC last week? Blue Box now suddenly goes up, Kagurabachi goes down to the bottom and Kiyoshi is out and above Kgb, right now ToC only really matter for Otr & Harukaze lol

Someone Hertz is a beast, i don't think anyone ever predicted the series to be doing this well, it's very likely going to get a cover & lead cp pretty soon after the double issues.

Only 1 series getting color page lol what is going on Saito?

At this point is half funny half frustrating, but hey, at least Kagurabachi is there to make us company :beer

Hertz moving like pre-Saito Chojo right now
This one will sell pretty well tho

Well at least Someone Hertz is in first...

There just doesn't really feel like there's much to say about the TOC at this point, even the only two color pages thing is something we've bitched about several times now.

The color pages are what they are at this point:
- One Piece, Sakamoto Days, Witch Watch, and maybe Kagurabachi don't do standard color pages
- The Elusive Samurai was already limited and now it's ending
- That leaves Me & Roboco, Akane, Nue, Kyoshi, Hima, Shinobi, Ichi, and Someone Hertz (with JJK on the cover). Ichi is usually on a cover instead, Nue gets shafted, and Roboco is pretty much one every serialization round.

Jump just doesn't have a lot of strong serializations with healthy authors I guess 🤷

The TOC is usually not all that interesting tbh, it's only interesting when there isn't clear axe fodder but even before this new round we all knew Otr was lucky and Harukaze was borderline. With TES and JJK Modulo leaving soon, it won't be too interesting probably for a little unless reception falls off in a major way for somebody

I am hoping someone hertz is at least able to sell more than kiyoshi because if not ...

And the toc right now doesn't really matter for anything over a year old.
